@adam-
Sometimes I think about how Sony tackled wearable tech almost 30 years ago with the Glasstron.
It came equipped 2, 0.55-inch mini LCD screens which the brain merges together to provide a viewing experience that is similar to a 52-inch screen at 6ft away.
Sony released 5 variations of this before they EOLd it in the early 2000s, and it still works with any compatible output.
IMO all wearable tech looks goofy, and this is no exception, but if you look at the PlayStation VR headset you can see how they evolved this design two decades later.

Actually, I don't mind seeing more companies take inspiration from Teenage Engineering designs.
